Obviously, there are some things one is not meant to see.
I don't like keeping secrets from you, but unfortunately, there are a few things I must keep close to my chest. We all have our little secrets, and I'm afraid that my directory listings are among the things I prefer to keep private.
It really is common practice to not allow one's directory listings to be viewed, so I hope you won't hold this against me.
Thank you,
The management
